hockeyville88 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 @FarhanLaljiTSN Booth out 4 to 6 weeks. Still calling it a groin strain. #canucks Ann Schmaltz @annschmaltz Booth suffered the injury Sunday morning during fitness testing. @VanCanucks Ben Kuzma @benkuzma Vigneault on Booth's injury impacting second line: "Obviously, guys like Ebbett and Schroeder are going to get a serious look." Is it just me or has David Booth never really made sense here in Vancouver? The guy just doesn't feel like a Canuck. He rubs everyone the wrong way with his character, has not panned out in terms of point production, and has had horrible injury luck. 2/3rd of our 2nd line gone for a lengthy amount of time in a 48-game season. Oyyy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The-Impersonator Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 If he's was actually training and staying in shape during the lockout rather than hunting he may not have hurt himself during physicals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas19 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Uh-oh. Our 2nd line is looking mighty weak right now. EDIT: I think we should move Burrows down to the 2nd and try Kassian on the 1st. Our 2nd line is just way to weak now without Booth and Kesler. Moving Burrows down would make that 2nd line a lot stronger. But of course if Kassian doesn't work with the Sedins... Ahhhh! This isn't the type of season where you can experiment with things. FRACK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drdeath Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 So 3-5 weeks that matter. That's not really that bad. Still shouldn't have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elvis15 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Either trade and get a player back we can use now, or look to the UFA market. There's only so many people we can call up to our second line and hope it still works. Sure would be nice to have had Jensen attending camp now.

That's not really that bad. Still shouldn't have happened. Not that bad in a normal season. 4-6 weeks in a 48-game season means he'll miss 16-24 games. That could amount to nearly 50% of the regular season. Combine that with the fact that Kesler is also out and it spells trouble for the Canucks.
